The Director General of Police (DGP) in Jharkhand holds the responsibility of maintaining law and order in a state that faces security challenges due to Maoist insurgency and organized crime. The DGP oversees various special police units dedicated to countering the Maoist threat, including the Jharkhand Armed Police. Their leadership is also crucial in handling communal tensions and preventing crimes such as illegal mining and human trafficking.
The DGP also plays a crucial role in public safety initiatives, ensuring that law enforcement is responsive and proactive in addressing citizens’ concerns. Collaboration with national agencies is also vital to tackle cross-border criminal activities.
